Abstract: At the turn of the century, gas was used mainly for illumination and was sold by volume and a candle power standard. As industry found other uses, the necesstty of a heaiing standard was obvious.Manycalorimeters-we-e-constructed-usingprincipiesofflame-color-or-Iength7o-fh-eatiRgmeasured quantities of water and measurigg the expansion of different types of heat eccurately. The most popuarr and accuraee modern designdd unit for measurigg heat value is the Cutler- Hammer recording calorimeter in which a ccntinuous flow of measured gas and measured air are burne,, impartigg the total heat to a controledd flow of air. The temperature of this medium of air is accurately measured befoee and after passing around the combustion chamber. The difference in the temperarere is transformed and continually recorddd on a roll chart.
